Hi Jeremy!

Please can you

(a) Post this to -user, not to -mentors: if you read the description
    of the various lists, you will see that that list is more
    appropriate to your question

(b) Give a few more hints: for example, use the reportbug program to
    report a bug, so that we know information about which version of
    the software you are using.

This error message was generated by the PAM library, so you may also
do well to give the output of ls -al /lib/security

P.S. Do we really need the ms-tnef attachment on a Linux list?
